Abstract:
The present teachings provide a fuser member. The fuser member includes a substrate layer. The substrate layer substrate layer includes a polyimide having dispersed therein a plurality of poly(p-phenylene benzobisthiazole) fibers. An intermediate layer is disposed on the substrate layer. A release layer is disposed on the intermediate layer.
Abstract:
A photoconductor that includes, for example, a supporting substrate, an optional ground plane layer, an optional hole blocking layer, an optional adhesive layer, an optional anticurl layer, a photogenerating layer, and a charge transport layer comprised of a first charge transport compound, a second dissimilar charge transport compound, a fluoropolymer and a polyarylatecarbonate.
Abstract:
Embodiments pertain to a novel imaging member, namely, an imaging member or photoreceptor comprising an overcoat layer which comprises a soluble filler that improves low surface energy and wear. The soluble filler is a silicone poly(ethylene glycol) ester which improves low surface energy and wear without negatively impacting electrical properties of the overcoat layer.

Abstract:
A ball milling free and roll milling free process that includes the mechanical mixing of a mixture of ingredients comprising a polymer, a perfluoropolyether phosphate, a conductive component, and a solvent.
Abstract:
The present teachings describe a process of forming a charge transport layer (CTL) coating dispersion. The process includes mixing a surfactant and a first organic solvent until the surfactant is completely solubilized. Fluoroplastic particles are added to the solubilized surfactant and first organic solvent while mixing to form a slurry. The slurry includes a particulate solid content of from about 5 weight percent to about 60 weight percent. The process includes mixing a base solution that includes a charge transport material, a binder, an antioxidant and a second organic solvent. The base solution is added to the slurry while mixing to form a CTL pre-mix dispersion.
Abstract:
A photoconductor that includes, for example, a supporting substrate, an optional ground plane layer, an optional hole blocking layer, an optional adhesive layer, a photogenerating layer, a charge transport layer, and an optional protective coating, and where the charge transport layer contains a mixture of a charge transport component and a polyarylatecarbonate.
